<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Buzzing with energy and humor, bestselling Caldecott Honoree Shannon ("No, David!") presents a busy little bee who, like most people, won't slow down to enjoy the simple joys in life. Full color.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Buzzing with energy and humor, bestselling Caldecott Honor illustrator David Shannon presents a busy little bee who -- like most people -- won't slow down to enjoy the simple joys in life.<p></p>Lizzie is the busiest, buzziest bee in Hivetown! David Shannon's vivid artwork and Lizzie's endearing efforts to do it all will make children laugh aloud at her frantic antics as she juggles school, multiple sports, dance, violin, and art. With charm and determination, she longs to impress the Queen by winning a spelling contest, but she studies to the point of exhaustion. When she dozes off in the middle of the competition, the only solution is rest -- and her refreshing visit to the local Garden finally teaches Lizzie to stop and smell the flowers, which . . . is exactly what bees are supposed to do. Shannon's exuberant new book is funny and fresh, approaching the subject of over scheduled children (and adults) with breezy good humor and delivered with his signature fun and heart.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Bizzy Mizz Lizzie is the busiest buzziest little bee in all of Hivetown!

But even the most<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Shannon's illustrations are impressive in their ability to portray a wide range of emotions, activity, and detail. The art is expressive and exuberant, bursting with yellows, pinks, and reds. Lizzie's busyness is mirrored in visually busy illustrations, and readers will enjoy discovering plenty of bee-related puns in the details.
